How to Delete and Restore Pipelines or Opportunities in Sparkforge

Cleaning out a pipeline doesn't have to be permanent. Sparkforge keeps deleted opportunities and pipelines recoverable for 60 days through Bulk Actions and Audit Logs. Only agency admins and account admins can delete or restore pipelines.

What deletion does

Deleting an opportunity removes it from the active list. The record is preserved in the system and can be restored within 60 days. After 60 days, it's gone for good. Deleting a pipeline removes the pipeline along with every stage and opportunity inside it.

Delete a single opportunity

1. Open Opportunities in the left sidebar and confirm the Opportunities tab is selected.
2. Click the opportunity to open its detail page.
3. Click the Delete icon in the bottom row and confirm.

Bulk delete opportunities

1. Go to Opportunities.
2. Use the checkboxes to select multiple records.
3. Click Delete from the bulk actions bar.
4. Type DELETE to confirm.

The job runs asynchronously and you'll get a success message with a link to the Bulk Actions page so you can track progress.

Restore opportunities from Bulk Actions (recommended)

1. Go to Bulk Actions from the Opportunities section.
2. Find the delete action you want to reverse.
3. Click the ellipsis (⋮) and select Restore.
4. Confirm.

Opportunities tied to deleted contacts cannot be restored.

Restore opportunities from Audit Logs

1. Go to Settings in the bottom-left of the sidebar.
2. Open Audit Logs.
3. Set the Action filter to Deleted and the Module filter to Opportunity.
4. Find the record, click the ellipsis, and select Restore.

You can also click the three-dot menu at the top-right of the Opportunities page and select Restore Opportunities for quick recovery.

Delete a pipeline

1. Go to Opportunities and click the Pipelines tab.
2. Click the trash icon next to the pipeline you want to remove.
3. Confirm. The pipeline, all stages, and all opportunities inside it are removed.

Restore a pipeline

1. Go to Settings > Audit Logs.
2. Find the deleted pipeline entry.
3. Click the ellipsis on the right and select Restore.

The pipeline returns with its stages and every opportunity that was attached to it.
